Incredible Sky

We haven't been getting many of these kinds of days. There is an explosion of flowers on the trees, but generally they are against a blah pale sky. However, that obviously was not the case on this gorgeous April afternoon (actually it was Good Friday).

“Art is an end in itself. Technique a means to that end: one can be taught the other cannot, for it is the quality which we bring into the world with us, and lacking it as an integral part, no amount of study will enable one to acquire it.”

Wow!! Such a gorgeous sky. I love the way the blossoms pop against the blue. (And what an interesting shade of blue that is!) Our pear blossoms are just about to bloom here, too. They're gorgeous, but they have a rather disagreeable scent to them.

Lovely Jack! The first thing that popped into my head was the feeling that you get as a kid when you get to finally wear your new Easter dress---I guess the guys won't get that, but for me it is a feeling of excitement about spring and Easter!

What beautiful contrast. You're right in how a richer, more saturated sky makes these blossoms stand out so well. The ideal natural contrast.
A great quote by the way ... I wish I had it when I posted on my blog day before yesterday -- the topic was post processing. Have a great weekend ... 'see' you Monday (I'm giving writing workshops all weekend)
